They added random cutscences, it's better to watch it imo.

The beginning is kinda slow, if you give it some time it'll deliver, I wasn't excited to start it, but man it's so much fun now. (I played almost all FF, but finished from VII+ to FXIII).

The stupid animation you get after Cindy refuels the car is just ugh

Well I encountered my first serious bug. Found a random injured npc walking out of a cave and gave them a potion. After doing so Noctis is now stuck completely still after finishing the task. It's as if I'm stuck in a conversation with them, but nothing is happening. Can't even bring up the equipment or proper pause menu. Guess I will have to reset and hope my last autosave is a good one.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
I spent around 25-28 hours from Chapters 1-8. The latter half isn't long.
She looks like she came from a different game.
She is awesome, she just looks REALLY out of place.
I've been wondering why we don't get one of the bros leaning over the hood of the car when they refuel at other locations. -_-
Yep, I was 22 hours in in Chapter 3 with a ton of sidequest and hunts I hadn't started, this game easily has 100+ hours of content if you want to do it.

I got too overwhelmed with sides. Eventually, I just focused on the story stuff and it ended quicker than I thought.

You know why 🌝
cleaned... by massaging them with her breasts apparently
I didn't play that demo but combat in this game is amazing imo.
It's slow to respond only if you try to play it like a character action game or standard hack and slash.
Instead of precision strikes you hold either attack to enter automated combo mode, or defend to enter auto dodge.
You can tap combos too, and you can manually roll to evade, but it's mainly about timing how you switch between the automated states and choosing when to switch targets, use spells, activate techs, recharge, etc...
If you embrace the automation it becomes incredibly fluid and very responsive in its own way. Just don't try to play it in a way it's not designed for.

She looks like she came from Tekken.
Well maybe it's because Roberto Ferrari did Tekken characters lol.
Just bought it as right after I saw this. Found it in Taelpar

I would like one if you're willing to part with one.
And out of curiosity what level is everyone currently?
Better than the Duscae demo and Platinum Demo, yes. But Judgment Disc demo combat is identical pretty much.
Chapter 9 end spoilers:
This is as bad a game as I have played in a very, very long time.
This game is irredeemable garbage.
Altissia is as poor a city level as I've ever played. Nothing to discover, labyrinthine with dead ends everywhere. Leviathan was such a bad boss battle I just had to laugh. It was actually shocking that they released that in that state. Then that cutscene. All rules of good storytelling shattered for emotionally manipulative nonsense. And I'm not even surprised anymore.

The installation of this game is annoying
Install game to HDD from disk: 10 minutes
Install 1.02 patch: 2 hours
Then there's a 15 minute install on game's main screen.
The hell?

Yeah, it really weirds me out she's dressed like that and poses that way around her grandpa.
oh shit that would have been really useful when I had that fight. Game didn't do a good job explaining that
Holy shit, talk about a coincidence. I drove RIGHT PAST it as I was reading this post, pulled a yoo-ee, and grabbed it. Thanks.

It would explain why Cid seems so grumpy all the time tbh
Maybe he tries to use the cap to shield himself
Damn. I really liked the frogs. With my headphones on I could actually use directional sound cues to find all of them!
While I don't think this game is the greatest and deserves all the criticism it's getting, I do think it'll be something special for the younger generation. Just like how many got attached to FFVII when they were kids, I could see the same with this game especially for a lot of kids that don't have many friends. The theme of friendship resonates very strongly.
But who knows. Time will tell.

Such a cool feature that Auto drive, I can check GAF on the way to my destination.
I don't spend much time traveling on foot. It's too easy to fast travel to most places, and chocobo otherwise.

Gladio performing a cup noodle advertisement was the most I've ever cringed at a video game
Hey psycho, sense you worked on it, any ideas just how much story stuff got cut? Like it's clear as day that a ton did. Poor Amy deserved more lines especially
Just imagine the frogs, without the sound and being much tougher to see.
ahhh I thought that just the official reboot of development headiing into 15. I guess some aspects of that back then were still versus
Huh?
Don't question it. Accept it.

Probably puts the cap lower when Cindy washes the car.
Press sprint again just as the stamina bar teaches the S in ST and Noctis will flash green and the bar will instantly refil.

Could finally start playing today (only about 3 hours in and still in the first area) but I'm already in love with the game. The soundtrack is absolutely stellar, already got goosebumps in the title screen. Also the
in the beginning really caught me by surprise (didn't watch any spoilers to avoid spoilers, so I didn't know). And what an amazing battle theme, real Shimomura greatness that is on the same level as her work in Radiant Historia and Xenoblade.
What surprised me the most is that Noctis and his group are actually extremely likeable characters. I was expecting FFVIII awfulness, (superficially) judging them by their character design. But how wrong I was...
Also, kudos to SE for the excellent German dub that is far above the average video game dub over here. It's also for the first time I like it even more than the English and Japanese dubs, where the characters in this case sound either extremely bland and emotionless (JAP) or to forced (ENG).
If the game can maintain this quality for the entire run it could easily become my favorite series entry after FFIX.

Nomura's XV was still Versus, just with a name change. The game was changed in a lot of ways when Tabata took over. That said, even things from Tabata's own trailers did not make it into the game.
Kinda wish they would've made it so that monsters will divert to the soldiers and they can fight each other, that would've been cool.

Chapter 9 was pure perfection for me and so far chapter 10 is looking great!! Idk man I'm an outlier here I love this story so far. And hands down this is my favorite rpg party I've ever had the pleasure of playing with. Its legit reminding me of when I took my road trip to Atlanta with my buddies last year. These guys are great

That's been happening to me for a while now too, but I couldn't remember whether it was always like that or not (80 hours in). Not complaining, though!
edit:
Welp, mystery solved! ThanksWhenever you kill an enemy with warp strike you get 1 AP every time. No ascension skills needed.
